Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
And whose hope is in the Lord.
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when the heat comes;
But its leaf wil be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought,
Nor will cease from yielding of food.
The heart is deceitful above all things,
And desperately wicked;
Who can know it?
I the Lord, search the heart,
I test the mind,
Even to give every man according to his ways,
According to the fruit of his doings.
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.
